Chapter 100 Wind from the Tiger
Snow-capped and rugged mountain roads.
Two young Taoist priests in Tsing Yi walked through the dense snowfield, their steps were light and swift, and they ran like flying.
These two Taoist priests are very young, the older one is only seventeen or eighteen years old, the long face is like a crown of jade, handsome and beautiful, if you go further, it will inevitably be dyed with fat powder. The youngest one is fourteen or fifteen years old, and he is also delicate and smart, and he is loved. Both of them were wearing yellow crowns on their heads, mangled shoes under their feet, swords on their backs, and only a thin layer of single cloth on their robes, but in such a harsh winter, they both looked calm, obviously not very human.
Walking through the forest for a while, the young Taoist priest said, "Uncle Shi, the tiger's footprints are in front." I said I saw it clearly when I came, and I didn't know if I was still there. β
The older boy said: "There has been no snow in the past two days, it should still be there, but it was trampled on messily, and it can't be seen clearly, so there must be clues left." β
These two little Taoist priests are naturally Cheng Jun and Jing Shu. Although Cheng Jun has entered the Taoist, he has not officially become a Taoist priest, and he usually dresses up in the view of non-Taoism, but after going out, most of them still dress up as Taoist priests. Today, I came out to follow Jing Shu to find traces of demon beasts, which was nothing more than a whim. Thinking that this mountain forest is just an ordinary mountain remnant, and it is not a spiritual mountain treasure, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is not very sufficient, and it is just a matter of supporting a few little demons who absorb the essence of Yuehua, and it is impossible to produce any high-level demon beasts. Therefore, this time he was purely outing, and his mood was very relaxed.
Jing Shu was very excited, although he couldn't go out to adventure alone, but it was not in vain to see Cheng Jun make a move. He admired Cheng Jun quite much in his heart, although he respected his teacher more, but in his heart he knew that Cheng Jun was more powerful than his teacher. It's just that Cheng Jun's only shot in Heyuguan was to cut off the demon Dao, but he hadn't seen it, and he couldn't even remember how his master used the spell at the beginning, and he had only seen a few bloody and weird tricks of the old demon Dao, and he couldn't see it all. He really wanted to know how powerful the Daoist master was. Therefore, in his heart, he hoped that the demon beast would be very powerful, and it would be able to fight with Cheng Jun for three hundred rounds, so that he could open his eyes.
The two came to a forest, Jing Shu lowered his head and looked carefully, only to see that the woods were white, the ground was covered with snow, and there was no difference, and said, "I'm afraid it is...... It's not easy to find. β
Cheng Jun raised his head and said, "Look at the traces on the stone, are you the ones you saw last time?"
Jing Shu looked up and saw a big stone across the mountain, which was two feet high, and it was like a high wall in the middle of the road. At the top of the stone, there is a clearly visible paw print, which is full of car [***] small, penetrating through the stone, entering the stone very deeply, almost tearing the stone entirely.
Jing Shu was taken aback and exclaimed, "It's so powerful, what kind of fierce beast is this?"
Cheng Jun said: "What, isn't it the tiger claw you've seen?"
Jing Shu turned his head sideways, tilted his eyes to a suitable angle, looked at it again and again, and finally said: "That's it! I was lying on the ground, but now I'm lying on the rock, I almost can't recognize it!"
Cheng Jun nodded and said, "This footprint is somewhat interesting, but the size is not small." It doesn't seem to be a monster, but like an arctic tiger on the North Sea ice sheet. β
Jing Shu said: "What is that, a demon beast of different species?"
Cheng Jun said: "Xenomorphism is xenospecies, but it is not a demon beast, it is a beast of considerable size, which is still far worse than a demon beast." Their fur is white, black stripes, and their eyes are blood-red, fierce and swift, and they are also a hegemon on the ice field. Although Sheng Tian is also cold, it is not a polar ice field after all, so there should be no such variety. β
Jing Shu was speechless: "With such a big force, the rocks are torn apart, isn't it a demon beast?"
Cheng Jun said: "You underestimate the power of the demon beast, this kind of texture of the rock is just a turquoise, a rodent with a short arm can bite off the thick stone beam of the bowl, a demon beast of this size, stepping down, it is not uncommon to break the stone." It is precisely because it only tore the stone and not torn it that it shows that its power is not enough. But being able to leave a mark on the top of such a high stone shows that it has a good bouncing power. β
Jing Shu's face turned pale, and he said, "You said that a first-grade demon beast, but it is equivalent to a monk in the Dao Initiation Period, does it have such power?" I also said that I can deal with ......."
Cheng Jun said: "Of course...... There are some small monsters that you can deal with. Because a first-grade demon beast basically has no spells except for its strength--if a beast that can't spell even has the same strength as an ordinary beast, then what qualifications does it have to be called a demon beast? There must be something special about it. β
Jing Shu said: "That...... What about those things that can transform into sincerity and benevolence, breathe fire and spit, and absorb people's essence?"
Cheng Jun said: "That's called a goblin - you have been staying in the Taoist temple, where did you get those legendary scripts?"
Jing Shu blushed and said, "When I was a child, Senior Brother told me many stories like this. β
Cheng Jun laughed, and was about to say more, but he heard a tiger roar in the distance, shaking the mountain. In the whistling, a fierce and vicious aura was undisguised, and the woods seemed to shrink for a moment, and the snow on the trunks of the trees fell in a flutter.
Cheng Jun suddenly turned his head and said, "Sure enough, there is a white tiger, just in the direction of the east." Let's go. As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the tiger's roar.
Although Jing Shu is young, his courage is not weak, and he is the age of competitiveness, so he followed Cheng Jun and said, "Uncle Shi, when you meet that tiger for a while, can you let me try it first?" Seeing the tiger's paw prints just now, a trace of cowardice flashed in my heart, but in an instant, the aggressive heart prevailed, and instead invited the fight.
Cheng Jun said: "It's okay." Although you have no experience in dealing with monsters, you will have to face it sooner or later. This alien white tiger is between a demon beast and a beast, the strength is appropriate, but it can give you practice, I will give you a sweep in a while, you go and give it a try. β
Jing Shu smiled: "Thank you, uncle." β
As he was talking, he heard the white tiger roar again, which still resounded through the mountains and forests, but the ferocity in the voice seemed to have faded a lot, but there was a kind of ...... Jing Shu said: "Uncle Shi, did the white tiger meet the enemy? or was it injured? Why does it sound miserable?"
Cheng Jun also heard the timidity in the white tiger's roar, and his heart sank, and said: "As far as I know, there should be no beast that can compete with the Arctic Tiger on land. β
Jing Shu said in a trembling voice: "Then the other party is really a demon beast?" The voice in his voice was not so much frightened as excited.
Cheng Jun snorted and said, "If the other party is a demon beast, then the battle should end soon." The appearance of the demon beast was really unexpected by him, but he was not in a hurry. Fighting against the white tiger, and making it scream twice in a row without dying, naturally it will not be a high-level demon beast, and a first-class demon beast will come to an end. And Cheng Jun himself is now at the pinnacle of his initiation, coupled with his various means and rich experience, he is invincible among the same cultivation-no matter whether the other party is a human or a beast.
In fact, Cheng Jun doesn't care about a first-class demon beast, even if he peels off the skin and bones, it is not worth a few dollars, not to mention that Cheng Jun has caught a lot of inventory in Wanma Temple, that is, Fan Daocheng under the mountain, most of the materials of first-class demon beasts are also ordinary stalls. It's just that Cheng Jun is a little curious, what kind of first-grade demon beast will operate in such a shallow mountain forest?
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the place where the white tiger's roar came from, a gust of wind blew, and a fishy and evil breath came from the wind.
The clouds are from the dragon, the wind is from the tiger, and the king of beasts appears, often accompanied by a fishy wind. The wind came from the northeast, fierce and cold, mixed with snow foam, but in addition to the usual foul smell in the wind, there was also a faint smell of blood.
Jing Shu exhaled and whispered with some disappointment: "It's just a brute, with the smell of a brute." The beasts of the ground are not as good as the feathered birds. Before the words fell, I heard a chaotic sound of leaves, and a white shadow rose out of the air and fell to the ground.
Jing Shu was secretly taken aback, took three steps back sharply, leaned on a big tree, and then watched intently, only to see a big insect with white skin and black stripes lying on the ground in front of him, his eyes were faintly shining, and he was staring at himself.
Rao is Jingshu was prepared, but he was still startled by the size of the white tiger, it turned out that the white tiger was lying prone on the ground, his head was higher than the top of his head, his body was afraid that it was not two zhang long, and a tail was thicker than his arm. It was those yellow eyes, each bigger than his two fists together.
The white tiger was lying in the middle of the road, like a hill. It was motionless, and it was full of shuddering deterrence.
It's just that...... After being stunned for a moment, Jing Shuden realized that something was wrongβwhy did such a majestic beast appear and lie on the ground?
With a turn of his eyes, Jing Shu immediately discovered the problem, where the white tiger was lying on its stomach, there was a trace of crimson on the fur on its hind legs, the red color continued to expand, and there was a tendency to infect the ground under its feet, and the bloody gas in the air became thicker and thicker, gradually reaching the point of pungentness.
"It hurts. Cheng Jun said beside him, "Don't act rashly, the trapped beast is still fighting, the injured tiger is very dangerous." β
Jing Shu nodded, he noticed the fierce light in the tiger's eyes, it was a fierce light that would burst out and hurt people at any time, but for some reason, the fierceness of the white tiger did not seem to be aimed at the two humans in front of him, and he did not have the slightest intention of taking the initiative to attack, just lying on the ground and whining. Jing Shu asked, "What about the guy who hurt it?"
Cheng Jun raised a finger and said, "It's here." β
Hearing a strange scream, a furry figure sprang out of the woods and landed opposite the tiger
